Watch this uplifting FSM propaganda video

Published July 25th, 2011 by Bobby Henderson

I love this video so much. Years ago I had the experience of watching an authentic over-the-top propaganda show and this video is spot on. Who can resist accepting information as Truth when it’s set against delightful music and animation? I think all good propaganda straddles the boundary between happy and creepy. My question to you is: what emotions did this invoke?

Yes, creepy is the right word. It’s creepy while you’re watching it, and then sad when you reflect upon it.

I hope that someday humans evolve to the point where propaganda doesn’t work. It will require a substantial increase in critical thinking ability in the general population. I’m not sure what evolutionary pressures would drive such increase, but I can dream.

P.S. Kudos to the artists. It’s very well done. Please do not go to work for any church or government.
